Editorial Reviews

From IFCTV, The Minor Accomplishments of Jackie Woodman is a herky-jerky romp through Hollywood. Jackie Woodman (Kightlinger), a writer for a second rate indie film rag, and Tara, a low-level employee at a film production company, are determined to succeed in this fast paced LA scene. Armed only with willful ignorance, fleeting confidence and poor judgment, this lovable, and barely functional duo continually screw up, yet, somehow manage to persevere and stay best friends.

This show was on IFC years ago and was pretty funny. Not hysterical funny, but written well. I live in LA and deal with different aspects of the entertainment business. This show is spot-on at times with the sheer lunacy of this town vis a vis celebrity worship and no talent idiots who got lucky. This first season is good. Second season was better, though not available on DVD yet for some reason. Comparable to "The Comeback" with Lisa Kudrow or "Episodes" with Matt LeBlanc as far as a low-key, well-written comedy that not many have heard of. Highly recommended and keep an eye out for season 2.

If you're a fan of dark comedies you'll love this twisted take on the two zany gal pals making their way through the demented world of Hollywood. It's a shame IFC didn't release the second season too but I guess even they have bean counters in suits declaring comedicgenius is not profitable. A must for anybody involved with Hollywood.

This is a subversive, funny, and smart t.v. show that too few people know about. Laura Kightlinger and Nichole Tom are an amazing duo--a classic pairing of friends like Lucy and Ethel or Laverne and Shirley! Only drunk on martinis or high on peyote. This is the other Los Angeles that only people who live here know is the real one!

The Ultimate review: it made us pee with laughter. This is the funniest show that nobody knows about. Laura Kightlinger is a truly original comedic voice. This series is a combination of Ab Fab and Curb your Enthusiasm but funnier. The comedic writing is on a consistently high level with some of the best lines since Fran Leibowitz. these discs are Season One and originally aired on the IFC channel. I'm definitely tuning in for Season Two.
